### ⭐ Absolute rubbish blew up

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by T***M on 16 December 2019*

This 10A charger is so very simple to use, simply hook up the clips to the battery plug it in to power and push the start button. The charger does everything else, even if you have the clips hooked up on the battery the wrong way it won't work/spark or ruin anything. I have used this on my riding lawn mower battery, tried it on both vehicles batteries and even two 6v batteries in line on a golf cart. This charger worked on all the batteries flawlessly, and then if you leave it hooked up overnight it keeps the battery topped off and fully charged. The size is very nice, easy to store and only weighs a pound or so. This is a great charger that is very user friendly and when needed should do the job and not break the bank. Hope this helps!
